I, Jiajing, successfully cultivated immortality

Jiajing was a little surprised that Lu Fang came to meet him so early, and immediately saw him look away from Lu Fang, and gave instructions instead.

"Well, get up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After getting Jiajing's consent, Lu Fang just slowly got up from the ground. Immediately afterwards, without waiting for Jiajing to ask questions, Lu Fang took the first step, took Chen Hong's confession out of his sleeve, and respectfully said to Jiajing.

"Your Majesty, here is Chen Hong's confession!"

When Jiajing heard this, a look of surprise appeared on his face. Immediately after he looked Lu Fang up and down, he waved his hand and ordered.

"Well, since that's the case, bring me the confession!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After that, Lu Fang came to Jiajing's side and handed Chen Hong's confession into Jiajing's hands.

Jiajing took the confession, immediately calmed down, and began to browse the above content.

Soon, Jiajing finished browsing all the contents, and immediately slammed the table, saying in a deep voice.

"Hmph, this Chen Hong is really impatient. Not to mention annexation of land, corruption and bribery, he dares to cooperate with those local ruffians and distribute loan sharks to the common people!"

When Jiajing said this, he immediately turned his eyes to Lu Fang who was aside, and asked.

"By the way, Lu Fang, where is that Chen Hong now, I must deal with him properly!"

When Lu Fang heard this, her face was full of embarrassment. After a long battle between heaven and man, she finally mustered up the courage to report to Jiajing cautiously.

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty, Chen Hong died last night because he couldn't bear the punishment in the prison!"

After Jiajing listened to Lu Fang's report, there was not much surprise on his face, he just said calmly.

"Oh, is he dead? It seems that he is really cheap!"

As Jiajing said, a look of regret appeared on his face at the right time, as if he was regretting that he could not deal with Chen Hong himself.

Seeing this situation, Lu Fang hurried forward and reported to Jiajing.

"Your Majesty, to tell you the truth, last night, when the slaves sent people from Dongchang to investigate this Chen Hong, they confiscated a total of 340 million taels of silver from various mansions he bought in the capital and from the homes of merchants who had cooperated with him. , look..."

When Jiajing heard this, he just glanced at Lu Fang lightly, and immediately spoke encouragingly.

"Well, Lu Fang, you did a good job on this matter!"

"In this way, the 340 million taels of silver and the 300 million taels of silver will be sent to the national treasury, and the rest will be sent to my internal funds!"

Seeing this situation, Lu Fang was immediately overjoyed, and immediately responded.

"Obey, Your Majesty, this servant will send someone to do it!"

After leaving these words, Lu Fang did not stop in Qianqing Palace, and immediately walked away with small steps.

Jiajing looked at the back of Lu Fang leaving, and immediately stroked the dragon head carved on the dragon chair with his hand, wondering what he was thinking, after a long time, Jiajing came back to his senses, and said silently to himself.

"Heh, 340 million taels of silver is really a big deal..."

……

At the same time, Jizhou, above the school grounds.

At this moment, Yang Xuan, governor of Jiliao, looked at the orderly and silent soldiers in the audience, and couldn't help feeling a lot of emotion.

Ever since the cabinet issued the corresponding order, Yang Xuan has been making preparations for the departure of the army. Whether it is the transfer of military equipment, food and grass, or the distribution of soldiers' salaries, he has tried his best to ensure that in the process, he will not be afraid Any errors occur.

With the great assistance of Yang Bo, Zuo Shangshu of the Ministry of War, he finally made all the preparations. Now everything is ready, the army can rush to Chahar Department to put down the rebellion according to the plan set earlier at any time!
In this operation, although the Ming army occupied the absolute righteousness, for the sake of conservatism, Yang Xuan decided to personally lead more than [-] elite Ming troops, and the configuration of the more than [-] Ming troops can be called luxurious .

In addition to the necessary armor and weapons, Yang Xuan also specially ordered someone to bring over a dozen new cannons from the Weapons Department that had been transported to the front line of Jizhou earlier. These soldiers are also well equipped.

Of course, the new weapon most equipped by the Ming army was the grenade. After all, this weapon had already proved its value in the previous battle. Not only was it extremely lethal, but it was also very easy to carry.

After a while, Yang Xuan came back to his senses, and after clearing his throat, he spoke loudly.

"My official is Yang Xuan, the governor of Jiliao. I think everyone already knows me!"

"Today, everyone is called together for one thing, and that is to put down the rebellion from the tribe for Zasak Tuhan!"

When Yang Xuan said this, he subconsciously looked at Tumaihan beside him, and Tumaihan rarely had such a situation, so he had no choice but to nod his head.

"Because of this, we are the teachers of justice. We are rightly named and well-spoken. We will wipe out all those rebels who dare to make trouble for Zasak Tuhan!"

"Kill kill kill!"

As soon as Yang Xuan's words fell, there was a deafening shout of killing from the audience, and the emotions of many soldiers in the audience were mobilized by Yang Xuan. These waves of sound made Yang Xuan's ears hurt. .

Seeing this situation, Yang Xuan nodded in satisfaction, looked around, and continued.

"According to the usual practice, for all the soldiers who participated in this battle, your salaries have been paid in advance. In addition, you don't have to hand over the income captured in the battle, and keep it for yourself!"

"After finishing what I have said, do you have any comments on this?"

After Yang Xuan finished speaking, he glanced over the many soldiers in the audience one by one.

After a long time, Yang Xuan looked away, stared at the soldiers under the stage, and said loudly.

"If not, then pass on the order of the officer, and the army will immediately move out and rush to the Chahar tribe to suppress the rebellion!"

"Yes!"

At this moment, seeing the fighting spirit in the audience and the Ming army armed to the teeth, Tumahan's heart sank, and a touch of regret immediately emerged.

The more than [-] Ming army led by Yang Xuan himself could barely fight even when the tribe was at its strongest. What's more, the current tribe has fallen into disintegration due to the competition for the sweat position. state.

How can a tribe in this state be the opponent of the Ming army, which has experienced many battles and is armed to the teeth?
Helpless, Tumahan had no choice but to keep praying in his heart, hoping that by then, there would be fewer victims!

……

Today, there seemed to be a lot of affairs in the cabinet. It was not until nightfall that Xu Jie dragged his exhausted body back to his mansion in the capital.

As soon as he entered the door, the butler greeted him with a concerned expression on his face.

"Master, did you encounter any delays on the road, why did you come back now, I thought..."

Xu Jie sighed helplessly when he heard the words, and immediately complained.

"Hey, it's not the trouble caused by His Majesty asking the cabinet to announce that the subject of arithmetic will be added in the next year's imperial examination!"

"All day today, people often come to inquire about news around the bush. These idiots, don't they know that there is never room for negotiation on what His Majesty believes?"

"What's more, they actually wanted to jointly sign a letter to persuade His Majesty to take back the order. Did they forget that Li Ding, the right servant of the Ministry of Rites not long ago, ended up?"

The more Xu Jie spoke, the more angry he became. In the process of walking towards his room, he continued to babble non-stop: "It's really a bunch of idiots who can't support the wall with mud, so I'm only home now!"

Seeing that Xu Jie was in a bad mood, the butler quickly changed the subject, and saw him come to Xu Jie in two steps in three steps, and said respectfully.

"Master, Tan Lun sent someone to deliver a letter!"

Hearing this, Xu Jie cheered up immediately, glanced at the butler, and immediately gave instructions.

"In that case, why are you still standing there in a daze, why don't you hurry up and give me the letter?"

"Yes, sir!"

Hearing this, the butler immediately took out the letter sent by Tan Lun from his sleeve, and handed it to Xu Jie respectfully.

After Xu Jie took the letter from the housekeeper, he waved his hand and gave instructions.

"Okay, you don't have anything to do here for the time being, you go down!"

Hearing this, the butler secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately said respectfully.

"Yes, sir!"

After the housekeeper left, Xu Jie turned his attention to the letter in his hand, which was sent by Tan Lun, and said to himself.

"Tan Lun, don't let me down!"

With such a mood in mind, Xu Jie opened the envelope in his hand and began to browse the contents on it, only to see that it said.

"Old Xu Ge, the letter you entrusted someone to send to the lower official, the lower official has already received it. The matter of grain allocation to Zhejiang is an order from His Majesty himself, and the lower official has nothing to do!"

"In addition, it is worth mentioning that since all the local bandits in Fujian were wiped out, the life of the local people in Fujian has also reached the point where they can barely survive."

"In order to consolidate the existing achievements, I request you to persuade Your Majesty to appropriately extend the period for Fujian to pay less taxes on the original basis!"

After Xu Jie had read all the contents of the letter, his face was already shrouded in endless horror.

He never thought that it would be His Majesty who personally ordered Tan Lun to go to Zhejiang to adjust grain, but soon, Xu Jie realized the seriousness of the problem, and saw his face gloomy, secretly said: .

"No, since the whole matter has His Majesty's shadow, wouldn't it offend His Majesty if I sent people to investigate this matter?"

Xu Jie continued to think along this line of thought, and the expression on his face became more and more ugly.

"Perhaps right now, His Majesty has received the news and is planning how to beat me!"

"No, I have to make up for the crime quickly, otherwise, things will be troublesome!"

Thinking so, Xu Jie immediately spread out the pen and paper, and after finishing writing a list, he immediately called the housekeeper and gave instructions.

"Here is the list of officials who openly opposed the imperial court's new examination subjects today. You go tell Wang Ting and them, and you must find a way to silence the people on this list!"

Hearing this, the housekeeper respectfully took the list from Xu Jie's hand, and immediately responded.

"Yes, master, I will do it now!"

After the housekeeper left, Xu Jie breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately put his hand on his forehead, and sat weakly on the chair, thinking so.

"Hey, it's been really unlucky lately. Firstly, I lost the position of chief assistant in the cabinet, but now I still have the risk of offending His Majesty!"

Thinking of this, Xu Jie couldn't help but start to comfort himself: "It's okay, at least it proves that Tan Lun is still loyal, and this is a blessing among misfortunes!"

……

On the other side, the Forbidden City, Qianqing Palace.

At this moment, Jiajing was sitting cross-legged on the futon, neither sad nor happy, and fell into a mysterious state.

From Jiajing's perspective, everything around him became extremely slow. Correspondingly, Jiajing's perception became extremely sharp, so much so that he could even hear the eunuchs' secret plots!

Just when Jiajing was about to quit this state, he suddenly heard a familiar voice.

"Eunuch Lu, here is the letter entrusted to His Majesty by my lord, but it's getting late now, look..."

"Well, our family knows, I will personally send it to His Majesty later!"

"Thank you, Eunuch Lu, I am very grateful!"

"Well, go down and rest!"

"Thank you, Eunuch Lu, thank you, Eunuch Lu, Eunuch Lu, this is a small gesture, please..."

After that, I saw Jiajing quit this state, and immediately got up slowly from the futon, sat back on the dragon chair, supported his chin with one hand, and thought so.

"Later Lu Fang will send me a letter, but who sent this letter to me, is it Hu Zongxian or Tan Lun?"

"If it's Hu Zongxian, then the contents of the letter are mostly related to the current situation in Zhejiang. For Tan Lun, it seems that I haven't asked him to do anything recently, right?"

"This letter should be sent to me by Hu Zongxian!"

Not long after, I saw the leading eunuch entered the Qianqing Palace with silent steps, turned his gaze to Jiajing, and said respectfully.

"Your Majesty, Eunuch Lu is out to see you!"

When Jiajing heard this, he immediately came back to his senses, nodded, and ordered quite casually.

"Well, I see, let him in!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After receiving Jiajing's exact instructions, the guiding eunuch did not stay in the Qianqing Palace, but turned and left immediately.

Not long after, under the guidance of the guiding eunuch, I saw Lu Fang stepping into the Qianqing Palace.

As soon as he entered Qianqing Palace, he knelt down on the ground with a 'plop' and said respectfully.

"Slaves see Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live long live!"

When Jiajing heard this, he looked Lu Fang up and down before opening his mouth.

"Well, get up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After Lu Fang got up from the ground, Jiajing looked at Lu Fang and said slowly.

"Lu Fang, without further ado, show me the letter!"

Hearing this, Lu Fang responded subconsciously: "I obey, Your Majesty!"

Just when Lu Fang took the letter out of his sleeve and came to Jiajing, did he react suddenly, his face was full of shock: "No, how did Your Majesty know that I came here to deliver a letter?" end of this chapter)
